Birkin probably cost 100 dollars to make

Yet the many man-hours and fine materials that go into the making of the bag may not account for much of its price: Luca Solca, an equity analyst at Exane BNP Paribas, estimates that the production cost of a basic Birkin is around $800.”

:heh:

but its the same for everthing, it costs like 3 dollars to make a sneaker,

Be shocked that anything mass produced isn’t valuable.

The point of luxury was that you had to pay up front for a limited item because you could afford the inconvenience of waiting for it to be made.. Anything that is sold at multiple stores(real and online) across the world ain’t luxury.

Real folks have been known this. My mother and grandmother are/were master seamstresses and made beautiful clothes, garments etc, for a decent price, they simply just shopped for quality fabrics at local garment stores.

Same thing for overpriced Nikes and Jordans.

That’s why I always make nikkaz look stupid when I say you can’t impress me about your shoe game unless your getting your shoes made my a shoe cobbler that has molded your foot on a shoe last to your exact dimensions. Custom made shoes will cost you minimum $2K

Same thing with having your clothes tailor made. Luxury department stores are finessing dumb financially illiterate kneeguhs!

I thought this was common knowledge.

I have aged out of this,but back in the 2000s,I spent insane amounts of money on high end Italian designer clothing,only to realize as I got older,a nice shirt is a nice shirt.

Alotta of y'all have NEVER been fly tho,so when you speak on these things it comes from a dark cold place in your heart.

What are they prosecuting :mjtf:

This is about them and a few other designer companies breaking labor laws. Poor working conditions, undocumented workers, cheap wages.

The $57 is just a sensational headline. Designer fashion has high mark up by nature so shyt gonna be ridiculously priced no matter what. But $57 is what they were documented to pay some workers for producing bags. $57 per bag. That didn’t include the cost of the leather and materials to make it
